The Main Topics of 4th Grade 4.NF A big idea in 4th grade is the fundamental facts about equivalent fractions (a fraction is not changed when its numerator and denominator are multiplied by the same nonzero whole number.) Spend time comparing, adding, and subtracting fractions with common denominators and the meaning of multiplying a fraction by a whole number.

For example: 3⁄8 = 1 ⁄ 8 + 1 ⁄ 8 + 1 ⁄ 8 = 2 ⁄ 8+ 1 ⁄ 8 2) Explain why a fraction is equal to another fraction 3) Add and subtract mixed numbers (whole numbers mixed with fractions, such as 1 1/5) with the same denominators 4) Multiply a fraction by a whole number Mathematics Learning, Teaching and Leading Collaborative
Fraction BarsIndividual Work 4.NF.1 Explain why a fraction a/b is equivalent to a fraction (n x a) / (n x b) by using visual fraction models, with attention to how the number and size of the parts differ . . . • Lay the 1/4 bar on your desk and then find bars with more parts but with the same amount of shading. Write down a number sentence to describe your actions. • Repeat this with the 1/2, 3/4, and 2/3 bars. When done, choose bars of your own choice, continue writing down number sentences that describe your actions. • Be ready to share your thinking and noticings.

With your bars, show that 1/2 = 2/4 = 3/6 = 6/12 What do you notice? • Sketch a bar for 2/5. Divide the parts of your bar to show that 2/5 = 5/10. • Sketch a bar for 3/8. Divide the parts of your bar to show that 3/8 = 6/16. • What are some general methods you found for forming equivalent fractions? Be ready to report out to the large group.

CCSS Math Task, Fraction Multiplication Rob is calculating the area of this rectangle. His strategy is to multiply the whole numbers first and then multiply the fractions. Since 6 X 7 = 42 and 1/2 × 6 = 3, he concludes that the area of the rectangle is 42 + 3 = 45 sq. units. Is he correct? If your answer is yes, explain why he correct. If you answer is no, write down the correct answer and tell why it is correct. 6 7 1/2 Math Learning TLC Mathematics Learning, Teaching and Leading Collaborative

CCSS, 5th Grade Stuffed with Pizza Tito and Luis are stuffed with pizza! Tito ate one-fourth of a cheese pizza. Tito ate three-eights of a pepperoni pizza. Tito ate one-half of a mushroom pizza. Louis ate five-eights of the chees pizza. Louis ate the other half of the mushroom pizza. All the pizzas were the same size. Tito says he ate more pizza than Luis, because Luis did not eat any pepperoni pizza. Luis says they ate the same amount of pizza. • Who is correct? • Show all your mathematical thinking.
